TFRU17B2JW0 Frigidaire Freezer - Instructions

Removed upper and lower screw covers. Removed 4 screws , Removed broken handle. Installed new handle with th 4 screws provided. Replaced screw covers. Done!

I am replacing rhe electrical parts that were wet. The motor and freon piping are sealed and uneffected by the flood.

I unscrewed the screws that held the old fan on, disconnected the wiring harness and removed the old fan. I pulled the blades off the motor and put it on the new fan. One thing of note, the screw holes on the new fan weren't threaded. I assume this is by design, so I used the screws to thread the holes before installing it in the freezer. Once I did this, the rest of the installation was easy, just screw it back in and connect the wiring harness.

Remove the cover panel inside the freezer, remove and replace the fan motor (pull fan blades off old motor and push on the new one) and replace the cover.

Even though we did not have the model or part number I was able to easily locate the exact part because of your photo, dimensions and video instructions.

Upluged power pulled freezer out from wall removed the two screws that holds the defrost timer unpluged defrost timer pluged new timer in mounted new timer back with the two screws pluged freezer back in and job was complete. Freezer working fine.

Removed decorative end caps on each end of the handle just by sliding them off. Unscrewed the broken handle and used the same screws to install the new handle. Replaced the decorative end caps by sliding back in place. Entire process took less than 2 minutes.

Replaced fan. I ordered the fan and received it the following.(-:

Easy repair, snapped off two trim peices, loosened 4 screws and removed the old handle. Screwed the new handle on replaced the trim peices and was done.

Notice ice build up on the panel in front of the evaporator coil. Unplugged freezer and removed evaporator panel. Plugged unit back in and checked fan, coil "snap switch" and heater element, all seemed to check out good. Found defrost timer stuck in the freeze position, causing frost to accumulate over the evaporator. Manually rotated defrost timer to the 30min defrost cycle and system went into defrost. Ordered defrost timer and installed (part arrived in 3 days). Freezer works great again. Too bad I ended up throwing 400 dollars worth of meat away. the fix was very simple. Will definitely use PartSelect again. Thank you.
